The RAW versions require no painting and less finishing material than standard painted models \u2013 creating an even more environmentally friendly loudspeaker that allows the natural beauty of the enclosure\u2019s recycled aluminium to shine through, and gives each individual loudspeaker a unique look and feel.<\/p>\n<p>All RAW models feature the timeless Minimum Diffraction Enclosure (MDE) design, developed by Genelec in close collaboration with leading industrial designer Harri Koskinen. By eliminating edge diffractions, the MDE delivers incredibly flat frequency response, precise imaging and unparalleled acoustical performance. The slimline enclosure is elegantly cast and beautifully finished to produce an extremely rigid structure with large internal volume \u2013 thereby extending the frequency response while simultaneously reducing resonances and thus the quantity of internal damping material required.<\/p>\n<p>Launched in 2017, the super-compact 8331 and 8341 three-way point source models offer extraordinary imaging, accurately controlled directivity in both planes, ultra-nearfield excellence, extended frequency response and fatigue-free listening. This enables professionals to work faster and make more informed, consistent decisions when recording and mixing.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thestudiolounge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022_Genelec_RAW_8331_8341_PR1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4079\" src=\"https:\/\/thestudiolounge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022_Genelec_RAW_8331_8341_PR1-1024x614.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"417\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thestudiolounge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022_Genelec_RAW_8331_8341_PR1-1024x614.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thestudiolounge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022_Genelec_RAW_8331_8341_PR1-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thestudiolounge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022_Genelec_RAW_8331_8341_PR1-768x461.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thestudiolounge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022_Genelec_RAW_8331_8341_PR1-696x418.jpg 696w, https:\/\/thestudiolounge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022_Genelec_RAW_8331_8341_PR1-1068x641.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/thestudiolounge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022_Genelec_RAW_8331_8341_PR1-700x420.jpg 700w, https:\/\/thestudiolounge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/2022_Genelec_RAW_8331_8341_PR1.jpg 1250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As part of Genelec\u2019s Smart Active Monitoring family, all models in The Ones range integrate tightly with GLM software, which can calibrate and control entire Genelec smart monitoring systems. Based on data from thousands of studios around the world, GLM is able to minimise the room\u2019s detrimental influence on the sound, enabling the user to produce mixes that translate perfectly to other systems, whether the format is stereo, surround or high channel count immersive.<\/p>\n<p>The decision to donate a percentage of RAW 8331 and 8341 sales to the AES during 2022 stems from Genelec\u2019s longstanding role as a Sustaining Member of the Society, and the valuable work that the AES brings to individuals for career advancement, and to the audio industry as a whole. The AES\u2019s crucial Standards work, promotion of audio research, development of milestone events and education spanning the breadth of audio technology has led the industry forward for more than 70 years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGenelec has been an amazing partner to the Audio Engineering Society\u201d, says AES President Josh Reiss. \u201cWe share a commitment to the advancement of the audio arts and sciences, which Genelec has proven by sharing resources and knowledge that advance our joint mission. With the launch of its RAW series of loudspeakers in 2020, Genelec further demonstrated that commitment by pledging a portion of the proceeds of the line to the Society. That pledge was realized in a sizable donation that helped sustain the Society\u2019s essential role in the audio industry during the dark days of the pandemic. Genelec is once again demonstrating its dedication to the Society with the announcement of a new pledge to contribute to AES a share of the proceeds of 2022 sales of the newly introduced RAW version of Genelec\u2019s The Ones monitors. The depths of the Society\u2019s gratitude for Genelec\u2019s partnership cannot be overstated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe RAW series is part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability, which we consider to be of equal importance as profitability and sound quality,\u201d explains Genelec Managing Director Siam\u00e4k Naghian. \u201cIt\u2019s clear that the popularity of RAW is a direct response to customers who have a growing awareness of environmental issues, but also appreciate the opportunity to own a premium loudspeaker with a unique aesthetic appeal. As our flagship studio monitor range, we\u2019ve had many requests to make The Ones models available in the RAW series, so we\u2019re very happy that we\u2019ve now perfected a way of producing the 8331 and 8341 to the same high standards as the other RAW models. We\u2019re also delighted that the success of RAW will be helping to contribute to the outstanding work that the AES does for our industry.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Genelec \u2013 the global leader in professional monitoring solutions \u2013 has expanded its range of RAW aluminium models to include the 8331 and 8341 three-way coaxial studio monitors from The Ones series, with a proportion of each sale of these new models being donated to the Audio Engineering Society (AES) throughout the whole of 2022.
